They kept trying to make it emotional between the two brothers and I wasn’t feeling it at all.Īlso, as much as I enjoyed some of the subplots they don’t tie into together well. Dru was kind of annoying and didn’t grow much as a character. The two of them interacting weren’t funny or engaging in any way. While some subplots worked, the major plot of Gru meeting his twin brother Dru really didn’t at all. There is a gag where they sing Modern Major General from The Pirates of Penzance that made me laugh.īut that is where my praises end. 80s loving villain Balthazar Bratt had a couple of good jokes and I admit the minions even made me laugh. There was also a few laughs in the movie unlike Minions. It doesn’t have anything to do with rest of story but it was cute. Here Agnes is looking for a unicorn in the forest. I also liked getting to spend more time with the girls as I’ve always found them more enjoyable than the minions. Kristen Wiig in the vocal performance is also great as Lucy. As someone who champions adoption this was a nice element to share and I wish they had devoted more time to it. I liked seeing Lucy trying to figure out how to be a Mom to the girls. Not so much here.Īnyway, I thought a couple of the subplots worked. If you read my Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 review you know I don’t always love this approach but in that film I love the group dynamic. The film divides its characters up into smaller subplots. And what did I think of this latest entry from Illumination? It’s a mixed bag but I didn’t hate it like Minions so that’s a plus. So you can imagine my trepidation going into Despicable Me 3 but I still try to go in with as much of an open mind as possible. I hated Minions and have been meh about the other movies. Those little yellow gobbledegook speakers have been the bane of my existence the last few years. Universal has unleashed this new clip from the upcoming “Despicable Me” spinoff, MINIONS and via IMPawards, here also is the new poster showing Minions yellow butts.If you have followed my blog you know my feelings about the minions. The story of Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment’s Minions begins at the dawn of time.Įven when they’re unintentionally mooning us, they’re still adorable. Starting as single-celled yellow organisms, Minions evolve through the ages, perpetually serving the most despicable of masters. Continuously unsuccessful at keeping these masters-from T. rex to Napoleon-the Minions find themselves without someone to serve and fall into a deep depression.īut one Minion named Kevin has a plan, and he-alongside teenage rebel Stuart and lovable little Bob-ventures out into the world to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. The trio embarks upon a thrilling journey that ultimately leads them to their next potential master, Scarlet Overkill (Academy Award® winner Sandra Bullock), the world’s first-ever female super-villain. They travel from frigid Antarctica to 1960s New York City, ending in mod London, where they must face their biggest challenge to date: saving all of Minionkind…from annihilation.įeaturing a soundtrack of hit music from the ’60s that still permeates our culture today, Minions is produced by Illumination’s Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy, and is directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda.
